There is always a hack confirming that it "works" ... but still:

- Default behavior should be good, not bad
- In DOS (and Win32), GIF images are supposed to carry the file extension ".GIF", not ".000" or so. LXPIC refuses your ".000" or more GIF's.

Thus, it still should be LOGO000.GIF, LOGO001.GIF etc. for DOS
